The game was on par with his performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV. He was fired three times, thrown two interceptions, and finished with a QB rating of 42.2.
NFL critics began questioning Mahomes’ legacy shortly after the game. Although I was comparing Tom Brady to the game, some Mahomes believed he was in his stratosphere with three consecutive titles, but losses – for some, both The gap between them has been reduced so badly that they are almost insurmountable.
Former Chiefs offensive lineman Mitchell Schwartz had none of them. He defended Mahomes in a social media post Tuesday.
“Someone has to explain to me how the 29-year-old legacy is hurt because I started my career after the best seven years and won three straight bowls more than anyone in history. Because we’re getting closer to doing that. Will we reduce that legacy?” he wrote to X.
“Tiger missed a major cut even at the pinnacle of his strength. Brady had a 16-0 team and lost to a 10-6 team. He missed his second year playoffs. Yard But does that have nothing to do with b/c that wasn’t in the Super Bowl?

“The dynamics have become so strange #ringz, as well as getting such a bad dock to the Super Bowl loss when doing unprecedented things before 30 years old. Brady has the most ever It’s a QB that’s achieved. I’m going to take years to compare their resumes.”
When Brady lost to the New York Giants in 2007, Schwartz pointed out, critics didn’t jump on his legacy and didn’t question his resume. He lamented the “reactionary” state of the media.
“It feels like you’re trying to blend MJ and Brady and put that standard. No one’s repeating 6-0,” he writes. “Brady didn’t do that. No one would do that, especially in soccer. Football is interconnected. One game is too small. Jordan has seven games and makes sure the team won. I did.
Schwartz asked the talking head to “pump the brakes” with comparisons and legacy talk.
Mahomes has enough time to catch Brady if it’s the target. Brady, 32, arrived at the fifth Super Bowl, fell 3-2 when the Patriots lost to the Giants for the second time.
Brady spent ten years without acquiring another. The Patriot defeated the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XLIX thanks to an interception from Malcolm Butler at the end of the game.

“I defeated everything today. I’m always working, learning, learning, and getting better,” he wrote to X.
